Valentina- with it’s high low short skirt & sweetheart neckline is a youthful , exuberant bridalgown; the name is inspired by Valentino’s Valentina perfume advertisements.
.
The third Wedding Inspiration board in the series is inspired by Valentina. In keeping with the spirit of the dress, it captures it’s fairytale spirit with a ‘Midsummer’s Wonderland’ of Gilded Chalky Pastels; a willow the whisp, enchanted garden scape.
More about the dress: Valentina is a sandy gold colour that features a Solstiss lace corset with sweetheart neckline, trimmed with a bow & pearl drop. The corset is teamed with floaty silk tulle sleeves & taffeta skirt with pearl trimmed waistline – a cross between Marie Antoinette & Rock & Roll.

The second moodboard we’ve created in the series is based on our Aurelia design & is an example of building a very elegant & luxe wedding day around the bride’s dress & colour scheme: Blush & Gold with a hint of pistachio.
More about the gown: This corseted bridal gown design is made in ivory silk crepe & features hand painted & beaded appliqué lace on the corset with pearl straps. The colours painted bleed from blush to apricot to touches of pink & the suggested decor & detailing on the board reflect the subtle, sophisticated palette.
